Sneaker Politics is best known for its roots in Louisiana, but the south’s premier sneaker boutique has locations across Texas, too, and its latest collaborations have brought the focus squarely to The Lone Star State. After linking with Nike for a Neon Bandana 95 drop at the store’s Austin location, Sneaker Politics is driving to Dallas for its next partnership, connecting with Kyrie Irving and ANTA for a patchwork Kai 3 and a refurbished local court.
The Sneaker Politics x ANTA Kai 3 is created from a patchwork of intermingling fabrics, in a mix of blue shades, red accents, and gold hits on the tongue and outsole. “Inspired by handcrafted patchwork motifs, this collaboration brings together diverse fabrics and textures connected through detailed stitching, turning the design into a symbol of unity,” Sneaker Politics wrote about the colorway. “A project built on Kyrie Irving and Politics’ shared commitment to craft, culture, and community.”
Combining leather, burlap, canvas, embroidery, and more, the shoe is a piece of art for your feet, and ties in directly with Politics’ latest community initiative in Dallas. To get ready for the Spring, Politics refurbished the basketball court at Fahim J. Minkah Community Park in Dallas, and will drop the Kai 3 collab at the grand opening of the court this week.
The Sneaker Politics x ANTA Kai 3 will be released at the unveiling of the restored court at Fahim J. Minkah Community Park on March 20, 2026, with any remaining pairs dropping the following day, March 21, 2026, in-store at Sneaker Politics Dallas. An EQL raffle for the pair is live right now on Sneaker Politics’ site. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $150.
